e achievements in safety, inventory accuracy,
and cost savings. Field surveys nonetheless reveal several limitations, notably
fragmented data, safety monitoring that still relies on manual observation, and the need
to optimise storage space amid rapidly rising output.
Drawing on three months of on-site engagement the thesis proposes a digital
transformation package comprising three solutions: integrating a Power BI dashboard
for real-time inventory monitoring, developing a Production Plan application in
Power Apps to synchronise production scheduling, and deploying an AI-camera system
for instant detection of unsafe behaviours. Initial trials confirm the potential to enhance
efficiency, transparency, and safety culture significantly. To perfect and scale up these
initiatives, however, the factory must continue investing in data infrastructure,
standardising procedures, and upgrading the digital skills of its workforce. Such steps
align with the Group’s Digital Step Change strategy and establish a firm foundation for
Nestlé Binh An to sustain its competitive advantage in the next phase of development.
